Hi,

I have an multiline edit for inserting an address:

        CXTPPropertyGridItem* m_GridItem = m_Order->m_GridItem->AddChildItem(new CXTPPropertyGridItem(_T("Address"), _T("")));
        m_GridItem->SetMultiLinesCount(6);

How can I use the return inside the GridItem? I've tried it with:
        address.m_GridItem->SetEditStyle(ES_MULTILINE | ES_AUTOVSCROLL | ES_WANTRETURN);

But no success.
Can anyone give me an hint?

Greets,

Patrik

Hi Oleg,

thanks for the info.

It is clear people can use ctrl+enter - but not all windows users know that

.

Most of them want the standard behaviour like in notepad: press return and you get a new line.
As CXTPPropertygrid already supports multilines I think it should also support ES_WANTRETURN.
What I would need is getting a new line by just pressing return.
Anyone has an hint?

Thanks,

Patrik
